I've just discovered this awesome archive.

Here. Check it out.

Ink Spots. Frankie Laine (singing the original "Jezebel"). Peggy Lee being desperate. Early Sinatra. Ella Fitzgerald. Billie Holiday. Rudy Vallee.
Louis Jordan and Bing Crosby.
Original Bill Monroe bluegrass recordings. Pete Seeger protestin', Red Sovine, Gene Autry singin' like a cowboy.

More Spike Jones than you can shake a stick at.

Plus one of the nicest listening formats I've seen - check off the songs you want to hear in a section, then play 'em all at once.

And Noel Coward singing "Don't Let's Be Beastly to the Germans."
In glorious RealAudio.

Y'all gotta hear this.

REally.
 
 
The Return Of Rothkoid

And they have the theme from The Third Man. So very, very rock.

Fan-f'king-tastic! Thanks for the link, grant.

While I'm here: I'm desperate for a decent version of 'Anything Goes' (not on the above site, sadly). If anyone could point me to a likely site to save me trawling through the search engines, I'd be most grateful.
